Hi!
I know that there are some tutorials to install QtOctave, but I'm too clumsy to achieve it. I cannot even install 'cmake', which is said to be needed. Is there another GUI for Octave that can be easier installed on Puppy?
I'm using Octave command line now, but I got used to the GUI at Ubuntu (home PC) which I cannot install at work.

I tried getting the R tarball, but the site said there was no such file.
Same exact thing with the R pet, and the PMG pet.

So...I tried using the official packages from the R project (bin/linux/ubuntu/lucid/*.deb), which installed. But, trying to install Rcmdr or pmg shows a lot of packages that can't install.
The problem is along the lines of
**libs
sh: -f: file not found
ERROR: compilation failed for package .......

About Rcmdr and the other guis - this was done in puppy 431. I havent tried in 5xx Puppies. The Problem is: new Puppies are fine but its a moving target ....
Although I tried to include some clues how I got it to work, maybe it helps with newer versions.

Firstly, a huge thanks to emil for doing all this. I'm currently using Lupu 5.2.8 and all the .pet files for just octave. It seems to be working great.

That said, I have some need for the octave forge signal package. Using the devx .sfs file, I'm in the process of getting everything I need for that, but I was wondering, once I get the octave forge signal package up and running, is there any way to reduce all of that to a .pet file? Thoughts?

this guide also contains information of stripping and further optimization of "puppy size" packages.

nice to see you here. Would be if we could get a signal processing pet, or in the future an Octave toolbox sfs!

hope this info helps a bit - kind regards
emil

PS: maybe post about Octave related news in new Octave thread. This old thread is kind of a mess, but it has a lot of hits and quite good google rank. Maybe I fix the first post to screen the current situation a bit better.
